Songtext von Here Lies Love

When I was a young girl in Leyte My dresses were all hand-me-downs and scrubs I'd see the people smile, and I would sing for them How happy they all seemed when I would dance We lived a stone's throw from the palace A simple country girl who had a dream Ladies passing by of better class than I How much it meant to me To be like these Is it a sin to love too much? Is it a sin to care? I'd do it all for you How can it be unfair? I know that when my number's up When I am called by God above Don't have my name inscribed into the stone Just say, "Here lies love!" "Here lies love!" Here lies love!" Just say, "Here lies love!" "Here lies love!" Here lies love!" The most important things are love and beauty It doesn't matter if you're rich or poor To prosper and to fly A basic human right The feeling in your heart that you're secure Is it a sin to love too much? Is it a sin to care? I'd do it all for you How can it be unfair? I know that when my number's up When I am called by God above Don't have my name inscribed into the stone Just say, "Here lies love!" "Here lies love!" Here lies love!" Just say, "Here lies love!" "Here lies love!" Here lies love!" I know that when my number's up When I am called by God above Don't have my name inscribed into the stone Just say, "Here lies love!" "Here lies love!" Here lies love!" Just say, "Here lies love!" "Here lies love!" Here lies love!"
